addition to your breakfast repertoire. A healthy and hearty breakfast

More than just for jack-o-lanterns, pumpkins are an amazing superfood -
providing Vitamin C to boost the immune system (especially important
with the coming cold & flu season). Extremely high in fiber and low
in calories, pumpkin packs an abundance of disease-fighting nutrients,
including potassium, pantothenic acid, magnesium, and vitamins C and E.
The key nutrient that boosts pumpkin to the top of the superfoods list
is the synergistic combination of carotenoids, noted for their cancer
fighting properties.
